Kelly Mayes said: "Disgusting and pure evil! Every one of those men! They should have got life imprisonment! Simon has a lifetime of being trapped in his own body and lost his life! Our justice system is a disgrace!"

Jonathan Lederman added: "I understand why the CPS charged them with lesser crimes, but it drives me crazy that it means they get ridiculously short sentences. Simon and his wife, family and friends however are sentenced to an indeterminate sentence. Seething I am."

Meanwhile, Gill Hammond Ballard called the sentencing "unbelievable".

"That poor man and his family were given a far longer and harder sentence by those cowards," she said. "Lets at least hope their actions follow them around far longer than just the prison sentence. Evil people," she said.

Tracy Moore called the men as nothing short of a "pack of animals".

"If only we had the death sentence," said Christine Jefferys-Ward. "Because one day when they are freed they will carry on with a normal life unlike Simon Dobbin and his family."

An episode of DIY SOS during which Nick Knowles and his team transform the home of disabled Cambridge United fan Simon Dobbin is set to air soon.
